"No! He was in a car ident and died on the spot..." Joanne''s heart beat fast as she spoke.
Since she became a member of the Atherton family, she would pay attention to news rted to their family.

Just two hours ago, Joanne suddenly saw the news that Eugene, who was being taken to the police station from
the hospital, was killed on the spot by an out-of-control truck.
Even though it was just right outside the hospital, the doctors did their best but still failed to save his life, and his
death was soon announced.
Catelyn was stunned, and after a while, she answered calmly, "I see."
"That''s it?" Joanne asked suspiciously, as Catelyn was way too calm.
"What do I have to do then? Hug him and cry for his death?" Catelyn sighed helplessly, but she was a little
shocked.
She thought he would serve in jail for the rest of his life, but a tragedy happened and took his life just like that.
She had wished for Eugene''s death so badly when she and her grandmother were kidnapped.
Thinking about it in hindsight, Eugene was her uncle after all, and her grandmother would surely be
reluctant to attend his funeral.
No mother would want her child to pass away before her, no matter how heartbreaking the child was.
Joanne started analyzing the situation. "Chill, I''m just asking. But don''t you find it suspicious? He was
killed in a car ident as soon as he was discharged from the hospital and taken to the police station-"
"Do you think someone hit him to death on purpose?"
"I did not say that! Forget it. Maybe I''ve watched too many thrilling shows... ’ Joanne muttered, "Hey, I
asked for a leave from the crew, and I''ll be right back to apany you on Christmas. Cat, wait for
me!"
"Okay." Catelyn smiled softly.
Thendscape was filled with snow, indicating Christmas was around the corner. Silently, Catelyn
hoped that next year would be a good year.
In the evening, Cedrick brought Miles and Ollie to pick up Catelyn for dinner.
It was the same restaurant where the two of them had a candlelight dinnerst time.
Miles and Ollie were present, so they could not have a romantic dinner.
Cedrick had a slightly annoyed face.
Sylvie did not mind him being with Catelyn anymore, so he made an excuse to send the two little guys
back to the Mason Chateau, but they both refused.
Hence, they were still living in Atherton Manor. Every time he went to find Catelyn, Catelyn would bring
them out.
The two little helpers became the third and fourth wheels!
"Mummy, I''ll peel the shrimp for you!" Ollie picked up a crayfish from the te in disposable gloves.
Not wanting to be outdone by Ollie, Miles offered to pour juice for Catelyn.
When Catelyn saw the cute looks of the two little ones, she took out her phone and recorded their every move.
The kids looked even cuter on the screen.
Miles made a cool gesture when he saw Catelyn was filming.
Suddenly, a man''s figure appeared in the background. Cedrick was wearing a gray casual outfit. He was raising his
eyes and looking at her through the camera.
Catelyn looked at him through her phone and secretly hit the shutter button to take several photos of him with the
children.
Thinking that they had been through a lot of life-and-death situations together, Catelyn''s heartbeat sped up
uncontrobly. She still remembered how much hatred she had for him when they first met...
The scene of him taking the stab for her on the deck would sometimes reappear in her dreams, touching her once
again.
Ollie finished removing the crayfish''s shell and handed it to Catelyn. Yet when Catelyn was about to take it, she
saw the greasy fingertips of the little guy, and nausea suddenly filled her stomach...
